So, on this date eleven years ago, my husband the pilot was in the air and I was home alone with a six-month-old baby. And a bunch of people hijacked planes and murdered nearly three thousand of my fellow countrymen, which is almost as many people as lived in the town I grew up in. People who tell me I should "get over it" and that 9/11 wasn't such a big deal can just sit down and shut up.

Okay. That's off my chest.

IN OTHER NEWS.

I have sold the Zombie Story! Once it comes out, I'll tell you where, because after the last thing where CatFeet got accepted and then they cancelled the antho without actually telling me, I'm a little wary of posting more details until you can hold the publication in your hands, BUT. It's an acceptance and I am happy!

Not only that, but the Squonk Story has been well-received, although not accepted anywhere yet. At least people are reading it all the way to the end before saying they don't want it, if my rejectomancy is right.

And the current project has stuttered to a stop. I really need to pick it up again. Someone kick me.

I've got more to say about WorldCon too, but I'll save that for when I have more than a moment to post.

I AM VERY EXCITED. The fun part was the fact that I actually got the email the morning after WorldCon, everyone I knew was gone already, and I had no way of telling anyone! So I was kind of sitting on the news until I got home.

But it's good to be back in the writing-and-subbing saddle again. Should be hearing very soon from WotF about Won His Soul, which I'm very very hopeful about.
